Dispute Summary
Hindustan Penciles Ltd. sued Dharam Pal Jain And Sons for infringement of their registered trademark NATARAJ used on stationery goods, specifically erasers sold in a distinctive carton (Annexure B), and deceptively using the numeral 921. The defendant was accused of passing off their erasers as those of the plaintiff by adopting a similar carton design and numeral.
Outcome / Ruling
The court granted a permanent injunction restraining the defendant from infringing the NATARAJ trademark, the copyright in the carton (Annexure B), and using the numeral 921, but declined to award damages due to lack of evidence supporting a claim for them.
